As she came to the top of the stairs she pushed the glass door open and a whiff of could air hit her body sending chills up her spine, 'Guess I'll have to get used to this,' she said laughing silently.
She walked through the large room that was decorated very modern. She noticed everything was decorated with either black leather or black marble with a few green plants, 'Talk about massive depressive decorator,' she told herself as she looked around everything moved fast around her, she didn't mind it, this was actually slow motion for her, 'I survived New York I can survive Florida,' she thought.
"Miss Fernandez," her thought was interrupted by a female voice.
"Ugh" was all that she managed to say as she realized she had gone back to lala land.
"Mr. Hank is waiting for you in his office, miss," the blond receptionist said as she sat back down behind the large desk
"Thanks, its floor 23, right," she said heading to the elevators.
"Yes, uhm I don't want to sound impertinent but may I have your autograph," the young girl said suddenly turning shy.
Alexia laughed softly and walked back to the desk.
"Thanks!"
"No problem," Alexia smiled back as she pressed the button to call the elevator, 'What is it with blondes and Florida, 90% of the people I have met are blond,' she thought as she waited impatiently. She was already late and the elevator was not making the situation any better. She noticed a group of people behind her, she heard them speaking so she decided to eavesdrop, she was bored and wanted to entertain herself as she waited for the extremely slow elevator.
"Look at that ass, I give it a 10 no a 20 definitely on a scale of 1 to 10," a man with a raspy voice said. "Ouch , what was that for." he said again.
"She is probably not deaf and you don't have a quiet voice, Bone." another voice said.
Alexia decided not to say anything she just laughed lightly
"Excuse me, miss," Alexia heard a deep mature voice as someone tapped her shoulder making her turn around immediately. as she turned she saw the expression on all three men and this made her laugh. They were all stunned to see how beautiful she was. She was about 5'7, with a light tan, she was built very well , just the right proportion in every spot, her lips were a perfect shape, very detailed, but not to big or to small just perfect, and she had the most beautiful blue-green eyes they were deep and peaceful, they seemed to sparkle. Her reddish blondish hair was turning a golden brown tone it was cut in layers and they fell so perfectly on her face. She smiled again as the tall man with dark hair spoke again, "I would like to apologize for my friend here," he pointed to a man about 5'9 with orange hair and yellow shades who was wearing a skin tight black shirt and baggy dark denim jeans. "He just does not know how to act properly in front of a lady like your self," he continued, he had a small accent of some kind but she really couldn't figure out from where but it seemed very familiar.
She smiled noticing how handsome he was, he had light yet tanned skin with green eyes that could melt any girls heart, he was wearing a light blue shirt with a pair of khaki pants that made his tall erect body look even more heavenly, "No harm done here but next time, be more discrete if your going to judge girls ass, I am used to it but someone else would have slapped you, silly," she said joking. She turned to the younger looking man who was standing on her left side, he was as or even taller than there dark hair man. He had blond hair that fell softly on his face, he had the most beautiful blue eyes, she noticed his hands were in the pockets of his black slacks, he was wearing a yellow shirt which was unbutton and had a white tee underneath, Alexia smiled at him. Making him blush, she let out a faint laugh.
Ding!! Alexia heard the elevator and turned around and walked in "Its about time," she said to her self softly yet out loud. she turned and pressed the door open buton, she looked at the three men and they looked as if they had been frozen by the air conditioner that was turned on way too high. "So are you coming or waiting for the next train?" Alexia said with a skeptical smile.
As awoken from a dream the three men walked in and said nothing. Alexia pressed 23 and saw the doors close slowly. "This is going to be a long day," she said.
"Uhm, excuse me asking, but have we met " the blond man asked.
'In my dreams' Alexia thought to her self "I don't think so." She said looking down at the floor.
"Its not a pick up line, if that is what you think , you just seem very familiar," he said gently grabbing her elbow making her look up at him. "You know who you look like?" the man with the black hair said "Like Alexia Fernandez, the actress."
Alexia laughed "You could say I do," she answered, looking at the confusion in all three faces, she suddenly knew who they were, "So can I get a name?" she asked to make sure she wouldn't make a fool out of herself.
"I am AJ" the man with orange hair said as he reached for Alexia's hand and kissed it gently making her smile.
"I am Kevin," the dark hair man said shaking her hand firmly
"Did your daddy show you that?" Alexia said now knowing the accent was a from Kentucky.
"Yes mamm," he smiled.
"And I am Nick," the blond man answered with his hands back in his pockets.
She knew he felt wierd, so she just smiled at him. "And what is the beautiful name that goes with this beautiful woman?" AJ asked.
"Do women really fall for that line," she laughed, AJ just shrugged his shoulders. "Just call me Ale," she said as she felt the elevator stop. Alexia turned around and yelled, "See ya around bsb," smiling she turned around and walked away.
"You guys" Nick said suddenly realizing who she was, "I think we just met Alexia Fernandez, and made complete fools of our selves." Nick said as she started to disappear in the crowd.
"Shit!" was said in unison by all three, as they ran out of the elevator.
They stopped in front of the same girl they had talked to on the elevator. She was wearing a black short flary skit that came up to half of her thigh, with a skin tight light green tank top. She slowly took her sunglasses off the top of her head that were working as a head band and put them into her black bag it looked like a small backpag, and her black strap high heels made her legs even more perfect. She turned around to see three breathless men next to her and this made her laugh, "I .....I mean......" Kevin tried to speak but it was impossible.
"We never thought that 'you' would ever be on the same elevator as us, not even the same building." Nick managed to say in one breath.
Alexia smiled, "Its OK, I actually like the fact not being recognized." she said taking out a pen and pad of paper out of her purse. "Here is the hotel I am staying at, and don't ask for me, ask for Sassi, call me let's have lunch some time," she said giving the piece of paper to Nick and walking away.
The three men just stood there stunned, as Alexia pushed the large black door she heard a yell "Yes!!!!!!!" She turned around and saw the ecstatic look on all three faces. She smiled and waved back as she walked into John's office.
"Al, where were you, I was expecting you an hour ago." John said as he greeted Alexia at the door.
"Sorry, I got lost and then I freaked outside and then, well you need to get someone to fix the speed on the elevators," she said laughing. "What?" She asked noticing John was starring at her.
John was about 50, his hair was in the fading stage half was light brown and the rest was a mixture of white and gray, he was about 5'9 and was a little over weight, time had not been very kind to his complexion he had more wrinkles than his linen shirt had. 'Too much sun,' Alexia always said. "No nothing its just you look different," he said sitting on his black leather chair behind a cluttered desk full of papers and picture frames with timeless memories.
Behind him about 17 frames with golden albums "What?" Alexia asked again.
"You have this , I don't know, are you dating someone?"
"No," Alexia said laughing, "but I just met the most gorgeous men outside." she continued laughing.
"Then that is it, I could always tell when someone came into your love life." he said looking out the large window on the right side of the room.
"Yeah especially when Mary tells you that I am here, but talking with three guys," she looked at him sarcastically. "Hey she is a good source of information, and a great secretary," he said laughing.
"I am definately going to like this place" Alexia smiled at herself.
